Wild Women’s Retreat

Creating a Wisdom Council

With LeeAnn Heinbaugh, Journeys in Living

When:  May 15-19, 2024 (6 pm Wednesday – 9 am Sunday)
Where: Woodstock, Vermont
Who:     Max 8-10 Wonderful Women

Wildness is about freedom, passion, & embracing our innate nature as women.

This will be our second annual retreat. I’m super excited to gather again – have wonderful women from last year, and add a couple new amazing women, too.

The labyrinth at Leading Fields

So many women, including me, talk about how we yearn for time with other women. Hold a deep desire to explore our soulful selves, know a deeper union with the stories we live by, and to embrace more of the flowering freedom that comes in living our truest natures.

I am blessed to live in a culture (Tzu’tujil Maya of Guatemala) that taught me about Women’s Councils. They are sacred space where our secrets and truths are held in honor, celebration, and compassion.

And this is what we’ll create together in the amazing space that is Leading Fields. This land is both beautiful and sacred.

The perfect place for us to create an abundance of wonderful stuff:

  • Wise Women’s Council – Sharing, learning, healing, and growing our innate wisdom with each other.
  • Explore – Journaling, meditation, Tarot, and some rest time.
  • Sacred Tradition – I’ll share bits of the Maya Traditions and practices that can be lived in the Modern World. We’ll invite you all to share your own, creating a sacred little “cauldron” of wisdoms we share.
  • Nature and Nurturing – walk the labyrinth and soak in the beautiful grounds.
  • Enjoy Woodstock – See the lovely town and enjoy a night (or two) out for dinner. An amazing food scene.
  • Closing Ceremony – I’ll bring handmade candles and other offerings from here in Guatemala and the Maya Tzu’tujil Traditions for our ritual.

And, as always, we will have lots of fun!!

Cost:

The fee is $1575 per person for double rooms at Leading Fields. Please note, there will be a very limited number of individual rooms as I need to increase the number of participants. Single rooms will be assigned on a first come, first served basis with $250 additional fee. There is plenty of space for quiet and alone time around the property. So, sharing a room is really just for sleeping.

Included:

Double & Single room lodging at Leading Fields. There are 5 Queen and three full beds, private and shared baths. All are beautiful.

Healthy and delicious breakfasts, lunches and two dinners. Group time, materials, rituals supplies, and transportation for planned activities. Please let me know of any food preferences. And you’re invited to bring and share your own favorite snacks.
